Update on HS Principal Search

Since the announcement of Terry Barton's retirement last month, the search for a new high school principal has included advertising the position and holding open focus group sessions for faculty and students.  A summary of those sessions can be found here.  The importance of an open, friendly school climate was a consistent theme.

A similar open meeting for parents is scheduled for Monday, March 11, at 8:30 AM in the Fireplace Room.

Students, parents, and staff have an additional opportunity for input by completing an online survey, accessible here.  Individuals may prefer simply to send an email to the Superintendent of Schools.

The next steps in the process will be to review resumes, conduct initial interviews, and submit a roster of semi-finalists to a committee of students, parents, teachers, and Board members.  The schedule calls for an appointment in early May.
